Overview

Universal Audio UAD-2 Solo Flexi enables you to run the best sounding authentic plugin emulations on the most powerful DSP platform available. The UAD-2 is all about putting more power in your hands. It delivers all the sound and channel counts of large-format analog consoles plus all the authentic tone of classic outboard FX inside the box. You can Track, Mix and Master to the next power, at sample rates from 44.1 to 192kHz.

The UA Powered Plug-Ins Collection brings the most sonically revered processors form the past 50 years of audio to your computer including vintage equalizers and compressors, superior precision mastering tools, lush reverbs and officially licensed classic hardware emulations from Neve, Roland, SPL and more. The UAD-2 comes with the MixEssentials II Plugin Bundle, valued at $300.

The UAD-2 seamlessly works alongside up to 4 UAD-1s (this means you can keep your old cards as well), but also allows any 4 UAD-2 PCIe DSP accelerator cards to be mixed and matched to conveniently scale the DSP power you want at the price you can afford.

Simply add more cards for additional outboard FX or more mix channels as your needs grow. Pro power-users can now use up to four UAD-2 Quads for the most demanding applications with equivalent potency to 40 UAD-1 cards!

UAD-2 comes with an all-new unified Meter and Control Panel for UAD-1 and UAD-2. The new Meter/Control Panel design offers improved status monitoring, easy Quick Plug-Buy and Software Update.

There's also improved rollover help and a new streamlined web shopping experience and completely re-designed UA website with integrated A/V Demos, tutorials, in-depth webzine articles, FAQ's and enhanced support so you can really get the most out of your UAD-2. You can use up to 4 UAD-1âs and 4 UAD-2âs in one system using the same software license.

The LiveTrack mode reduces latency on an active UAD-2 plug-in to the lowest possible amount. This feature is highly useful for monitoring processed audio when recording live performances. In LiveTrack Mode, UAD-2 signal data is transferred and processed immediately instead of being buffered, resulting in reduced latency. NOTE: When LiveTrack is active, host CPU loading increases. LiveTrack does not reduce the latency of your Audio Interface.

Each UAD-2 is powered by the same Analog Devices 21369 SHARC floating-point DSP in single (UAD-2 Solo) or multi-chip configurations (UAD-2 Duo and Quad), allowing you to pick the single card or combination that best suits your needs or system. UAD-2 adds the real magic of analog to your in-the-box mixes using UAi - UA's unique modeling technology.
